Thanks, I can reproduce this. Last good version was 5.4.4. Possibly related to 7214a84 but I have not confirmed that yet. cc @brandyscarney

Thanks for the issue. This has been resolved via #22561, and a fix will be available in an upcoming release of Ionic Framework.

Hey there,

We discovered an issue with the fix in #22561, so I reverted it. I am going to re-open this issue until we can implement a proper fix.

As a workaround for now, you can add [button]="true" to your ion-item:

<ion-item [button]="true" (click)="myFunction()">
  <ion-checkbox></ion-checkbox>
</ion-item>

@brandyscarney was able to come up with another solution, so this will still be fixed in an upcoming release of Ionic Framework. Thanks!
